As a person, I R.J. Amado do not like to toot the proverbial horn when it comes to talking about my personal accomplishments. But you all know what? Maybe I should. In fact, I am going to toot the heck out of that horn riiight MEEOWW!!!! What follows is an article i whipped up that basically outlines all the different jobs that my company would/will/may create if it were to indeed become a successful brick and mortar operation. Mostly based on the approximately 20 or so job hats that I already wear on my own and plan to continue doing for the sheer joy of it for as long as my budget will allow it. If this isn't dedication, i don't know what is. And yet all I ask of ANYONE in exchange for all this hard work is a simple, simple REVIEW! Enjoy:
What follows is a very rough outline of what we could look like as a brick-and-mortar 'real world' company in the near future. Potential job slots not shown here for simplicity's sake but could someday very well exist include executive assistants, HR managers, clerks and coffeee-makers....uhh, we mean interns.
Please note: positions in BOLD are jobs that R.J. Amado already does on his own because if he didn't, no one else would have by now.
Also, the single most important role is not listed anywhere within the company structure simply because it should be an obvious given: that of AUTHOR of a 1,000 plus page upon completion Fantasy trilogy!
